Glad you did this this product review. I was thinking of purchasing some distress stickles. I liked how the distressed stickles looked on your page. In the video and pictures it looks somewhat shiny/sparkly. THanks for sharing!

I like the colors of the Distress Stickles, but I think I’m with you — regular Stickles remain my favorite kind.

I like them both, but (almost) everything looks better with a little glitter!

I agree.

cute, cute, cute assistant! You introduced me to Stickles and now I am up to my 6th bottle! Had fun experimenting with them during LOAD. BTW, nice to see you in your new room and the color looks so happy and spring-y!

I think the distress stickles will be for me- most of my subjects are boys ( 4 grandson’s that is)

Hi Lain! I have to say, I have never used stickles at all….I know, I know…hmmm though, makes me want to pick up a few bottles of both kinds and experiment once I get my new studio up and running! Thanks for the review, would love to win some! Sue

She’s so funny when she’s on video. Starts making funny voices. Glad you are enjoying Stickles. Aren’t they da bomb???

I’m with you, Lain, I like the sparkle! But I can think of some layouts (I have 3 boys and 3 grandsons) that might prefer the ‘sandy’ look.

i like both. the distress stickles have mica in it so it isn’t the go-to bling. i would use it on the body of the flower. then pop in some stickles. then i think that it would look jazzy = D

Good idea – I like that!

Stickels of any kind – the only way I will do glitter anymore.

It makes it so easy, doesn’t it?

Distress stickles are wonderful for covering a space with a bit of shine and texture. They are designed more to spread (like with your finger) over an area rather than to draw a line or make a dot. because they dry more flat and not glossy. The tip of the bottle is actually a larger hole. And…. if I remember right, I should go review TH blog again, you can use the heat gun on the distress but not the regular stickles… But I can’t live without either anymore….

Thank-you for the review! I just bought some distress stickles and I was’nt sure if I was going to return them-but after watching your review I think I will keep them.

I just bought a set of 12 Distress Stickles to go with the distress ink. Wish I had seen your review first. I like the glitter look. Oh well, I’m sure I’ll find a use for the Distress Stickles too.

I’ve never used Stickles before since I’m not a huge fan of glitter on my pages. The new Distress Stickles give an amazing effect and I’d love to try them out!

These might be just right for you — not shiny!

I am sure you will.

I’m thinking the distress stickles might be great for masculine projects. Truth is I “need” both. Glittery for my girlie girlie and matte for my boys:)

I’ve used the distress stickles in broken china and worn lipstick on snowflake-background. The snowflakes were made with masks and distress ink in both colors. The stickles just gave them some sparkle. When i need much bling I will use the icicle stickles.

It sounds beautiful!!!

I go ahead and use the glittery stuff for my guys. They just have to suffer. If they complain I’ll tell ‘em to make their own pages. Haha!

Hi Lain, I havent tried stickles before, I am new to your blog and was thinking of adding a bottle to an upcoming order based on your commentry and the fact that i have bought most of the basic supplies you recommend and thoroughly agree with your comments on them. Thanks for the honest and helpful reviews and commentry, it is so great to have someone even handed giving an opinion.

You will LOVE Stickles!!!!! Let me know when you try them out!

I think I like both. The Distressed would give interesting texture without the sparkle and since I have boys (even the dogs) I don’t get to do much sparkle.

Lisa

Thanks for the review! Every time I saw the Distress Stickles in the store, I wondered about the difference between these and the regular Stickles. I think I agree with you; I love the glitter too much!

So glad it was helpful!!

I agree that the regular stickles are great for shine and I use them on almost every layout. I, however, found some great uses for the distress where the regular ones wouldn’t do. I make a bucket of sand embellishment for a beach page and use Scattered Straw distess stickles to give it demension. It looks great!!! Just enough shine and texture to make it come to life. I also like to spread the distress stickles with my finger over a larger area. The glue dries clear and matt so all that is left is the bits of glitter. It’s a great way to liven up cardstock or a flat embellishment.

That is a fabulous idea!

Hmmmm – still not sure about the matte finish. Looking for more ideas! But I sure would like to win some – glittery or not!

De Jewell

I like the sparkle so much better but that’s my own preference. Glitter for everything!! Have a great day and thank you so much for your fantastic videos. I am learning so much. (Still trying to get through the getting rid of extra supplies and stuff) : ( LOL
